MINUTLS_OV EVIDENCE., talcen betorethe Committee oldie whole House, ppointed to consider ofthe . l'olicy , and Conduct of the late Expedi tion to the Scheidt. TENTH. DAY, FEE. 2,1. Lieut.-General Sir JOHN HUFF, allied in,,and ar - ningd by the Committee. ' How soon•after your arrival' in South Bei , eland did you receive•aq intelligence of the state of the enemy's force or preparatio74s ? 7 -lipon thecvning' of the Ist' I had. communication with several of the inhabitants of Goes, and from them understood • in general v:hatwas aft.:rwards confirmed by more pariicular intelligence received at different dates ; upon tie. 34 of August there seemed to-.be no doubt, from the ; intelligence .vre had; tlrat the enemy had certainly thrown troops into- Bergen-, pp-Zoom. The General then entered into.. a detail of the state of the enemy's force from the Bth, to the 28th of August; on which latter day the enemy had from Bergen-op-ZOom to Antwerp, including Antwerp, 21,780 men.. , °— • Had you-any information of the state Mill° and Liefkenshoeik when , the expedition, arrived at Bathz,' or soon after; -and their tnea'n defence'?- -4i wag stated generally, by the persons ,whorn 'we :employed, ,Well as by- the inhabitants of 'South Bevelarid, wlio pretended to know any thing of the -matter, that the' Forts 'Of and Lief kenshotek were in a state. of :defence as to the works ; with relied to the garrisonS, _I have stated that upon one occasion one .thousand men were, said to be -in Lillo, and •five-hundred, in Liefken shoeik, but that I believe they %fele over-rated,. particularly Lillo. The enemy was very e;arly ob - sepfecito be at work (improving the works L Pre sume) at Lillo, and -.I believe subsequently at' Lief-, kenshoeik. What communication - had you with LQrd ,Chat ham alter his arrival in South Beveland i,--111y Lord Chatham came to the village Of SchoCite, where my head-quarters were, the day after his arrival in rlie Island, upon the 22d - ; that was the first cltaileci communication of any kind I had with. Lord ChaV ham respecting the expedition ; I 11,A not. seen , his Lordship subsequently to 111, embarkation at all. State What the communicanons mere which you had with Lord "Chatlill'in ?- 7 -It was" a. conver,s.ition which lasted a Considerable time, during which Lord Chatham- certainly did me .the honour to ask my opinion relative 'to the ulterior proceeding, .of the army.. . State what was the substance of the opinion you. gave ,to Lord Chatham ?—The substance of my °poll-oil. was; that mere- was no prebability of our success against Antwerp or. the fLet. Then the COmmittee' is to understand, that very „soon after, your arrival •in, South -I.3eveland, wis you opinion "that you- had very little chance of suc ,,cess a;ainst Antwerp, which opinion subsequent: events confirmed ?--Previous to the sailing .of the expedition I . was not sanguine in my expectation of success but soon - after my arrival in` South Beve land, that opinion became a positive one. What was ,the earliest day , yon'.considered the army off Santvliet, in a state to commence opera bons with its-necessary estvpmemi, of cavalry,ar tillery, stores, - &c. ?—1 think the 24th of August, which was the date of, the arrival of General Gros venor'sdivisionl and I believe the remainder of the cavalry, the 'last - transports-which came up to the Scheldt. • Of the 21,780 Men. whom you have stated were pitisoned in the cantonments in the neighbour hood of Lillo; Antwerp', , and riergen-op-Zoom, how many - do ibut suppose ,that the enerny, after leaving proper garrisons in those different forts, could have brought:into the field have no means -of knowing the distribution 'of - the.erretny's force, and cannot' ther = efore speak with any sort of preci sion to that question. . DO yoU conceive 'that the possession of the for tress. of Flbshing, and the island of Walcberen, was necessary to the further success of the expedition ?- 1 conceive indispensable. Do'you conceive that after the taking-of Flushing, and at the period 'when the-army was ready to ad vance ag2inst Antwerp, the further success of the expedition had become hopeless ?-1 do believe I have stated as much. Then the Committee is to. understand,: that the taking of Flushing Was indispensable, and that after it .was taken, -it was impossible to eitecute, what remained of the prbjed is the- opinion I have' formed ; at the same time I never limited that-opinion to the period of the' termination of, the siege of Flushing, , Are ,. you of opinion' that Antwerp could haVe been carried by a corm-de main '2 7 1 certainly never hird any bud.] impression, knowing nothing of the works; however it never -struck the as a possible - cast; at al]. the Earl of RossLY.N. . - .Does yOur Lordship know, according -to the ori- - gFnal"plati, 'what was the aniciunt of the force 11.1 t was destinea ,to the ulterior operations by Sant• vliet ? : —lncluding the r;:.Serve under Sir John. Hope," a part of which or some other corps; must :have been left in SOath Beveland, the *hole force would hive arnotufted to ahout - 23,-000 rankand i tile; exclusive of The waggon train and gunner drivers; \as nearly as can recoiled, they consisted ot . Sir John Hope's, Gen. Gros.venor's, Lord Huntly's divisions, and Illy .; awn. Knowing what your Lordship, dOes of the erre- MY's force, do you conc,eive . t,hat at any lime spb sequent to your arrival at South Beveland, the force you have stated would have been sufficient to have Masked Lillo 'and Bergen-op-,Z00m,-to - lrave secured the convoys, and to,have attacked Antwerp with the least probability of - success ?-4 do not. Supposing the army had advanced against Ant werp and had been repulsed, without having ,se cured Lino 2)r Bergen-op .Zooni, does your Lordship think they would been'exposed to imminent risk id their retreat ?—To very considerable hazard, more partiCularly'lf they had not time to throw up works to Cover their re-embarkation. In any conversation with- Lo?d Chatham - before the sailing of the Expedition, or ,in South &vela - cid,. d:d lour : Lordship cofurnutficate yoUr datibts re speaing the practicability of the ulterior objects of the Expedition ?—I. collniunicated' my opinion to Lord Chatham 'to the effea now stated, *when I saw, his Lordship in South Beveland on , the 2.;,)d or 23d of August. Does - not your Lordship think - thatithe whole of thE\ x p e di!ion. was rather too laic .to answer any ma terii?l, purpose am not prepared to, answertliat question, h.or I do / 11.ot Icnow at what time it- would have:answered the porpse. Supposing the fluet_notto have moveclup to Atit- Werp, or _to have moved ,up,above Antwerp, in what way would the possession-of Antwep alone haVe affected .it he destruetion of the fleet "?—lf - the fleet had. not - moved up . to Antwerp, then, undobbtedly,, by the pOssession -of the banks of the river, the -ships rifight'-have been destroyed by fire from the - -• At any time after the communication of the obje of that Expedition to your. LOrdship, were you of opinion - . that that ol;je4:1 was attainable? —I was not in possession of the Inteliigence,Upou which the Ex pedition-• wad 'ordered, and without some knowledge of the f+rceof the enemy, not only in the coon , . tries against which,the Expedition was inimediately direCted,. but in all.*.surrciuncling districts, it was not possible to forni a -decided opiniOn upon that subject. , 01,1) BAILEY.
